Mesh Separates,
March 21, 2009
By:
wingman4from North Carolina
"The quick entry pocket system is the best I have seen. Nice looking vest. After only 5 months of use the mesh is tearing free from the waxed cotton pockets allowing my shells to fall out. I am sending the vest in for exchange or repair."

Scatch & Dent,
December 10, 2008
By:
gambelinmanfrom Long Beach, CA
"Purchased this vest last year in the all tan for versatility for quail, pheasant and dove. I must say, the layout and access to pockets and game bag are excellent. The problem is the tin cloth covering the spring pockets has worn away at the inside corners, exposing the metal and scratching the stock of my gun. Unacceptable! This should not be a one season vest. The return process is already underway."

Best Light Vest,
August 24, 2008
By:
kentt
"I have used this vest for 3 years now - It is great for hot weather dove hunting & and works very well over a heavy coat for cold weather pheasant hunting. The mesh is very durable and provides for good ventilation. Out of all of the vests that I have tried and looked at in stores - this has been the best one for me."
